Chapter 169: As Long as It’s for Big Brother Lin

In the dream, Lin Xun had already closed his eyes, and the voices of the various girls in his ears had vanished.

But Lin Xun knew that he hadn’t escaped the dream or the Heart Demon.

On the contrary, he was sinking into it step by step.

To overcome a Heart Demon, there was one key point: to be firm in one’s conviction.

But now, Lin Xun couldn’t do it.

Lin Xun could feel that, starting from his feet, he was beginning to lose sensation; this was a sign that his Divine Soul was gradually being stripped away.

Lin Xun knew the consequences of his Divine Soul being stripped away; he feared he would become nutrients for this Secret Realm.

For Cultivators, they need to comprehend the Dao, and in a sense, the process of comprehending the Dao is about severing Heart Demons.

After reaching the Yupu Realm, Heart Demons are almost completely severed and will not recur.

But Lin Xun had never encountered a Heart Demon on his path of cultivation; even his process of comprehending the Dao was a confirmation of his Spear Techniques.

Back when Lin Xun was cultivating, he had only Spear Techniques in his heart and nothing else; he craved power, while Su Ying took care of everything else for him.

But now, when Lin Xun no longer pursued power and others began to exist in his heart, he would have Heart Demons.

Heart Demons correspond to a Cultivator’s Realm, and because this was the first time his Heart Demon appeared, it manifested at its Peak state, even with the buff from this Secret Realm.

Therefore, Lin Xun’s Heart Demon was likely stronger than anyone else’s.

And this Heart Demon came from Lin Xun not knowing how to handle his relationships with them.

Lin Xun knew he loved Qinger the most, but regarding Wang Chen, Nong Qin, and Su Ying, he found he couldn’t let go.

Even his guilt toward Wang Xing was being infinitely magnified in his heart.

Finally, there was Lin Xun’s fear—the fear of Qinger finding out he had deceived her for years and was even entangled with other women.

In short, it was the last bit of conscience in Lin Xun the scumbag that was constantly torturing him.

He couldn’t bear to part with them, couldn’t let go, yet didn’t know how to handle it; everything was devouring Lin Xun’s last bit of Soul.

Could this be the final fate of a scumbag?

“Big Brother Lin”

Just as Lin Xun’s consciousness was about to fade, a soft voice gently echoed in the lake of his heart, like a drop of clear nectar falling onto a stagnant lake, creating ripples.

“Big Brother Lin”

Another call echoed in Lin Xun’s heart-lake.

The next moment, Lin Xun felt a softness pressing against his cheek, followed by a familiar scent wafting into his nose.

Warm Buddhist light enveloped Lin Xun, and a warm current flowed into his heart. His consciousness gradually returned, and he opened his eyes.

The moment his consciousness returned, Lin Xun’s first thought was: Wang Chen seems to have grown up.

“Wang Chen, why did you come in?”

Quickly shaking off his lecherous thoughts, Lin Xun reluctantly pulled away from Wang Chen’s embrace.

For Wang Chen, who possessed the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart, no external influence could cause her to fall into Demonic possession, no matter how powerful this Secret Realm was.

In fact, because of the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart, Wang Chen had never even had a dream.

Since it was impossible for Wang Chen to fall into Demonic possession or even dream, it was impossible for her to enter his Heart Demon dreamscape.

Unless Wang Chen had a “demon” in her heart—using this as a pass, then using the Heart Demon as a medium along with some Secret Technique, she could enter his dream.

“Wang Chen encountered a Little Dream-Eating Tapir; it was the one that let Wang Chen enter the dream.”

Wang Chen lowered her head and gently tugged at Lin Xun’s sleeve.

“What about the Heart Demon?” Lin Xun looked at Wang Chen worriedly. Even with a Dream-Eating Tapir, if she didn’t have a Heart Demon as a medium, Wang Chen couldn’t have entered the dream.

The fact that Wang Chen had entered the dream meant she now had a Heart Demon.

This…

When a Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart possesses a Heart Demon, it is absolutely the greatest hazard to attaining the Holy Buddha Realm in the future!

But how could Wang Chen, with her Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart, have a Heart Demon?

“Wang Chen doesn’t know either.”

Wang Chen looked at Lin Xun with pure eyes.

“At that time, the Senior Dream-Eating Tapir said Wang Chen needed to fall into Demonic possession to enter Big Brother Lin’s dream, but Wang Chen didn’t know what a Heart Demon was.

Finally, Wang Chen thought about how she might never see Big Brother Lin again, and she was so scared. Then, without realizing it, she entered Big Brother Lin’s dream and felt his Heart Demon.”

“…” Lin Xun hadn’t expected that Wang Chen could fall into Demonic possession like this.

But fortunately, this kind of possession was specific.

Wang Chen fell into Demonic possession because she was worried about him, which meant that as long as he lived, her Heart Demon would vanish and wouldn’t have much of an impact.

However, why did he feel like he was experiencing a social death?

As long as Wang Chen entered his Heart Demon, she would know what he was thinking.

In other words, his indecisiveness among women, and how his entire mind was about to succumb to the Heart Demon because of it, had all been “seen” by Wang Chen?

“Wang Chen, about my Heart Demon, did you see everything…”

“Yes,” Wang Chen lowered her head in front of Lin Xun and nodded gently.

Lin Xun felt as if he’d taken a critical hit to the heart. No, he really wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

“Big Brother Lin”

“Yes?”

“I’m sorry… Wang Chen didn’t expect to become Big Brother Lin’s Heart Demon.”

Wang Chen tightly gripped Lin Xun’s sleeve and raised her head, her eyes filled with self-reproach as she looked at him.

“Big Brother Lin can be with Sister Jiang Qing, and he can also be with Miss Wangxing and the others.

Big Brother Lin doesn’t need to give Wang Chen a status, nor does he need to care about Wang Chen.

Whether Big Brother Lin lets Wang Chen stay or makes her leave, it’s all fine.

Whether Big Brother Lin hits or scolds Wang Chen, she won’t blame him.

Even if Big Brother Lin doesn’t like Wang Chen, it doesn’t matter.

Wang Chen likes Big Brother Lin; that’s enough.

If Wang Chen’s love causes Big Brother Lin trouble, then Wang Chen will pretend not to like Big Brother Lin.

So…”

Wang Chen’s small hand tightly grasped Lin Xun’s large palm.

“So… Big Brother Lin… please don’t be troubled anymore, okay? Wang Chen doesn’t want to become your trouble.”

Looking into the girl’s pure eyes, every word Wang Chen spoke was like a sharp blade piercing Lin Xun’s heart countless times.

He remembered how she had grown thousands of strands of black hair for him back then, and now she had fallen into Demonic possession for the first time for his sake.

Moreover, because she now knew what it felt like to be possessed by a demon, it would be even harder for Wang Chen to attain the Holy Buddha Realm in the future.

And all of this was because of him.

Lin Xun’s eyes wavered, and he sighed softly. “Wang Chen, is it worth it for me?”

Wang Chen’s eyes curved into a smile, her smile like the rising morning sun, chasing away all the darkness in Lin Xun’s heart:

“As long as it’s for Big Brother Lin, everything about Wang Chen is worth it.”

【Wang Chen has too many stories; those from the future and those from when she first met this scumbag Lin Xun can only be told slowly. Additionally, Wang Chen’s “Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart” and “Untainted Buddha Heart” will never change.

It’s just that this silly girl’s ‘heart’ of the ‘Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart’ and her ‘Buddha Heart’ have both been placed on that scumbag Lin Xun.

Pah! scumbag!】
